How do you create a training in Coachably?
TL;DR: On the Trainings screen, tap Add Training, then work through three steps — Details (name, client, date & time), Exercises, and Schedule. Tap Save, or Save as Draft to finish later.

What happens after you save a training?
The training appears on the Trainings screen and on the client’s schedule. Your client can see when the session takes place.
If you tapped Save as Draft instead, the training stays private as a draft. Open it again anytime to finish the details and save it for real.
How do you plan a training for a client online?
The flow is the same whether you coach in person or online. Set the Date and Time in the Details step, and your client sees the session in their app — there’s nothing extra to fill in for an online session.
To build a recurring schedule, use the Schedule step. Choose Repeats to create a series, or leave it on Does not repeat for a one-off.
FAQ
Can I save a training as a draft? Yes. Tap Save as Draft in the Schedule step. The draft stays private until you reopen it and save the finished training.
Do I have to add exercises right away? No. The Exercises step is optional. Tap Next to skip it, and add exercises later by editing the training.
How do I make a training recurring? In the Schedule step, choose Repeats. This creates a series instead of a single session.
What is the difference between a training and an event? A training is a workout session you plan for a client. An event is any other entry on the schedule. Pick one under Type.
